Frequently Asked Questions

Dr. Chaitanya specializes in treating a wide range of respiratory conditions including asthma, COPD, sleep apnea, chronic cough, lung infections, interstitial lung diseases, pleural diseases, and performs interventional pulmonology procedures like bronchoscopy and EBUS.

Interventional pulmonology involves minimally invasive procedures to diagnose and treat lung conditions. This includes bronchoscopy, EBUS (endobronchial ultrasound), airway stenting, foreign body removal, and pleural procedures. These techniques often avoid the need for major surgery.

Common signs include loud snoring, witnessed breathing pauses during sleep, waking up gasping, excessive daytime sleepiness, morning headaches, and difficulty concentrating. A sleep study (polysomnography) is the gold standard for diagnosis.

Bronchoscopy is usually performed under sedation and takes about 15-30 minutes. A thin, flexible scope is passed through your nose or mouth to examine your airways. Most patients go home the same day and can resume normal activities within 24 hours.
